Description

Horror of Dracula (Universal International, 1958). Italian 4
- Fogli (55" X 78.5") Style A.
Hammer films struck box office gold with its string of gruesome
Universal horror remakes, thanks in no small part to the sinister
talents of Sir Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Their second
Hammer film after the popular The Curse of Frankenstein in
1957, their work on The Horror of Dracula was met with even
greater success and cemented Cushing and Lee's places in film
history. The two would make over twenty pictures together, forming
a lifelong friendship and becoming genre icons through their
extensive work in Hammer's horror films. They generated a loyal
following and proved to be major box office draws, each starring in
a series of popular Frankenstein and Dracula sequels.
Never offered before by Heritage, this Italian 4 - fogli is the
first of two different style posters printed for the film. The only
noticeable condition issues are in the bottom panel, which shows
edge wear in the left border, slight fold wear and separations,
mild image ghosting around the Technicolor logo, faint toning in
the borders and folds, and a tear in the "A" and "M" of "Vampire."
Folded, Very Fine-.
